Made in approximately 2004 , it has the commander 4 1/4" slide, the smaller officer's frame and the sweetest double action trigger on the planet. This one has had a heavy dehorn and semi-mirror polish. The receiver's butt has been rounded and the plastic MSH replaced with a Wilson Combat compact SS round butt MSH. Sights are XS Sight Systems Big Dot tritiums. I'm still waiting on a custom EGW barrel bushing.
While the slide is basically the same as a standard 1911, the receiver is another story. Whoever designed the double action trigger system was a mad diabolical genius who must have designed automatons in a prior life. Or maybe it was Swiss watches. I thank the good people on the internet who have shared their knowledge on the reassembly of this complication. Once you reassemle it the logic and interrelationships of the parts is understood and it can be easily be repeated from memory. Still it takes much longer than a standard 1911 and is not something that can be done in the field very easy.
